Going My Way
Sign Near New Mexico State Prison
Here’s a post that punctuates my point in the previous entry.
This road sign is on the Turquoise Highway near a large state prison facility in New Mexico.
We can deduce this sign was put up after a hapless driver couldn’t conclude the “obvious” and picked up an escaped inmate. So, it seems the good sense of not picking up a hitchhiker near the prison was far from obvious—which is a cousin to assume, a word that can get you into plenty of trouble.
For an artist, the misguided concept of “obvious” is tantamount to work that lacks originality, invention, and vision.
